V. Read the text carefully and do the exercises below it (1 mark)
Everybody
loves
movies.
We
see
them
at
theatres
and
we
watch
them
on
TV.
They
are
popular
with
children
and
adults,
too.
We
can
learn
from
them
or
we
can
have
a
good
time
watching
them.
We
also
call
movies
'motion
pictures'.
'Motion'
is
a
noun
for
'moving'.
People
tried
to
show
motion
in
pictures
for
centuries.
Even
prehistoric
artists
showed
animals
running
in
theier
cave
pictures.
Near
the
end
of
the
19th
century
several
Europeans
and
Americans
tried
to
make
movies.
No
one
knows
who
made
the
first
one.
New
York
City
had
the
first
movie
theatre
in
1894.
People
put
money
in
a
small
machine
and
looked
into
it
at
the
movie.
By
1900,
movies
were
popular
all
over
Europe
and
the
United
States.
They
were
not
very
good,
but
people
liked
them
because
they
were
new
and
different.
Every
year
people
invented
ways
to
make
movies
better.
They
invented
machines
to
show
the
pictures
on
a
screen.
Then
everyone
could
see
the
motion
pictures
on
the
front
wall
of
a
theatre
instead
of
inside
a
small
machine.
In
1927,
inventors
add
sound
to
movies.
Then
they
added
color.
Today
it
costs
several
million
dollars
to
make
a
movie.
However,
movie
makers
collect
million
dollars
from
people
at
movie
theatres
because
everyone
loves
movies.
te T if the sentence is true, and F if it is false.
a.
Children
like
movies,
but
most
adults
do
not.
b.
We
can
learn
from
motion
pictures.
c.
Prehistoric
artists
showed
motion
in
the
cave
paintings.
d.
An
American
made
the
first
movie.
e.
Movies
were
popular
in
Europe
at
the
end
of
the
19th
century.
f.
Movies
are
the
same
today
as
they
were
in
1920.
g.
Inventors
added
sound
and
color
to
movies
at
the
same
time.
h.
It
is
expensive
to
make
movies.
